商品描述
Galaxies present a unique challenge to town dwellers. Amateur astronomers can't use narrowband filters to shut out light pollution or use ordinary techniques as they would in dark, open fields. As one can imagine, this discrepancy with light means not everyone who looks up at the night sky is capable of seeing all it has to offer. What a shame! Author Jane Clark, however, has spent two years going down blind alleys trying to get a technique to work to combat the amateur astronomer's biggest enemy, light pollution. In this book, you will discover the fascinating variety of galaxies: spirals, ellipticals and irregular galaxies, often sculpted by gravity as they encounter one another in the vastness of space. You will also learn how to image them, as well! While the most decent images pick up background galaxies 10-20x as far, each containing billions of stars, that's just the local universe! This book will help you observe for yourself right in your own backyard, allowing you to get a sense of the sheer vastness of the universe.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
星系對於城市居民來說是一個獨特的挑戰。業餘天文學家無法使用窄頻濾光器來阻擋光污染，也無法像在黑暗的開放田野中那樣使用普通技術。可以想像，這種光的差異意味著並不是每個仰望夜空的人都能看到它所提供的一切。真是可惜！
然而，作者簡·克拉克（Jane Clark）花了兩年時間在死胡同中探索，試圖找到一種技術來對抗業餘天文學家最大的敵人——光污染。在這本書中，您將發現星系的迷人多樣性：螺旋星系、橢圓星系和不規則星系，這些星系在浩瀚的空間中相遇時，常常受到重力的雕塑。您還將學習如何拍攝它們！
雖然最好的影像能捕捉到背景星系，距離達到10-20倍之遠，每個星系中包含數十億顆恆星，但這僅僅是本地宇宙！這本書將幫助您在自己的後院中觀察，讓您感受到宇宙的浩瀚無垠。
作者簡介
Jane is a PhD-qualified professional engineering physicist, now retired, and an incorrigible amateur astronomer. She has her own backyard observatory with two telescopes and an up-to-date collection of cameras. She loves to share her passion, and gives frequent talks to astronomical societies and other organizations. After several years specializing in the Solar System, she has become fascinated by galaxies, often reading so much about them that it's a wonder she has any eyes left! Jane is also the Author of three Springer Books: Measure Solar System Objects and their Movements for Yourself! (as J. D. Clark), Viewing & Imaging the Solar System: A guide for Amateur Astronomers, and Calculate the Orbit of Mars! An Observing and Historical Challenge.
